JR Products RV Screen-Door Latches: Amerimax, Philips & Handing
A worn screen-door catch may keep the screen from fastening to the main RV entry door even when the doors line up correctly. JR Products makes dedicated Amerimax and Philips replacements, plus a bi-directional latch for compatible 3-inch mounting patterns. Compare the original screw spacing and latch side before choosing a part.
Check the screw spacing first
Amerimax-style latch hardware
JR 10765 is right-hand and 10775 is left-hand, with mounting centres spaced 3 inches apart. Manufacturer number 06-11865 is the bi-directional version for this mounting arrangement.
Philips-style latch hardware
JR 11205 (right-hand) and 11215 (left-hand) use approximately 2.3-inch mounting centres. They are not direct replacements for a three-inch Amerimax mounting pattern.
Screen-door latch fit chart
| JR part | Door pattern | Handing | Mounting | Selection detail |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10765 | Amerimax | Right-hand | 3 in centres | Right-side latch, as viewed from inside |
| 10775 | Amerimax | Left-hand | 3 in centres | Left-side latch, as viewed from inside |
| 11205 | Philips | Right-hand | 2.3 in centres | Philips-style right-hand pattern |
| 11215 | Philips | Left-hand | 2.3 in centres | Philips-style left-hand pattern |
| 0611865 | Amerimax | Bi-directional | 3 in centres | JR original 06-11865; includes latch, strike, keeper and screws |
A latch with a similar shape may still have the wrong mounting-hole centres or handedness. The 06-11865 part number is recorded in this catalog as 0611865.
Before replacing a screen-door latch
- View the closed screen door from inside the RV to determine the latch's location on the right or left edge.
- Measure the centres of the original mounting holes, not the outside dimension of the handle body.
- Compare the existing striker and keeper arrangement to the replacement, including where the screen and main doors contact.
- Inspect the door frame for bent rails or enlarged fastener holes. New hardware will not correct door misalignment.
- Confirm the specific listing's supplied mounting hardware and follow the manufacturer fitting procedure.

Follow the exact manufacturer part number to inspect the current product information and availability.
Screen-door access panels
If the screen latches correctly but its hand-access slider is broken, compare our JR Products 12-inch screen-door sliders and stops. Those pieces are separate from the door latch.
